> Statistics: inaccurate handling of unknown numNulls/numTrues/numFalses stats
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HIVE-29438

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Konstantin Bereznyakov
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
>
> In some implementations, it can be very expensive to maintain fully
> accurate column statistics, especially for large tables. The recommended
> value to use when numNulls/numFalses/numTrues are unknown is -1.
> However, the statistics code has a few places where it treats "-1" as a
> literal quantity rather than a sentinel value, leading to inaccurate and
> sometimes catastrophic estimations (e.g., incorrect join ordering, wrong
> memory allocation for operators).
